Only recently has she laid a few more eggs, but as far as I can tell there's only one left which one of the workers is taking care of. I'm not sure why there's no progress here but the queen and the current workers are very active when I check on them. They don't seem much interested in eating.

If they don’t lay any eggs… I was worried, as my Floridanus I bought didn’t lay eggs before a worker died.AntsAntsAnts wrote: ↑Tue Feb 01, 2022 3:47 amso lucky. camponotus is a PAINSolenopsisKeeper wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 7:18 amI caught a queen with one worker and yea, she lays an egg a day(HOW FOR CAMPONOTUS)AntsAntsAnts wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 4:27 am

Well if you think about it, you could probably scientificly inject ant ****, but I am not sure where you would get it.

Re: My camponotus novaeboracensis has eggs!
I mean, it is possible to forcefully mate fire ants, but it involves killing a male, and the female has to have wings, and basically drug the queen. I don’t do it though…AntsAntsAnts wrote: ↑Sat Feb 05, 2022 3:55 ami know. it happened to me once too. Also is it even POSSIBLE to put in ant ****? much less obtain it?
